… If your co-workers charge only YOU an entry fee to the pot-luck dinners.

You discover acceptable lengths of logging chain hidden away, and celebrate like you won a lottery.
Your calluses ruin automotive paint
Fantastic (and very accurate) list. I’ve got 2 more.
Thrown-up after a set of squat/deads and continued your workout.
Relocated a garbage can in anticipation of losing your lunch during a set.

You have nothing but contempt for the personal trainers with a neck like a stack of dimes and arms to match.

Milk jugs aren’t for milk. They’re for filling full of the gallon of water you’re going to drink during your workout.
